here in Catonsville. People are blocking Rolling Road and an adjacent side street and parking lot to line up for gas. This was before 4:00 p.m. I sense panic.
1. I Think It's Because of the Rumor All Gas Stations Were Closing at 4PM
The rumor was made worse because gas stations were passing this misinformation on to their customers (I know of at least two in Silver Spring that told their customers this).
I'm normally skeptical of rumors like this, but I believed it myself after the gas station confirmed it. But Erlich has publicly denied it.
